Considering where Furiosa is at at the beginning of Fury Road, I can’t imagine this movie will have an uplifting ending.

I thought something similar as well. Anyone who’s read Watchmen knows that Ozymandias is supposed to be incredibly charming, with a megawatt smile and a personality that puts everyone he meets at ease. When Snyder cast Matthew Goode, he had Goode act creepy and speak with a German accent.

I’m gonna take a wild guess that the studio exec who didn’t think Pattinson was handsome enough was a man.

The MCU doesn’t even need someone as idiosyncratic as Matt Reeves or Martin Scorsese. They just need to trust the directors and screenwriters they hire. Quantumania boasted a writer who’s a Rick and Morty alum, and the only thing Rick and Morty-ish in the movie was a few jokes from William Jackson Harper’s character.…

There’s a YouTube video out there that I can’t recall the name of right now, but it was about why the 3rd movie in superhero trilogies usually suck. IIRC, it goes thusly:

Yes, because clearly The AV Club would NEVER report on a new movie trailer unless it’s sponsored.

There’s something even more concerning: she isn’t supposed to appear till the 2nd season.

The bending is based on actual Chinese martial arts styles, so I don’t think it’s that impossible.

“Let’s forcefit whatever’s in the most popular show into EVERY show” is the kind of brilliant everyman insight that these out-of-touch network suits clearly need more of.

Rick Berman had a deep, deep aversion to character development and continuity. He believed in the old ‘80s TV show model - even for a show that crossed over into feature films - of a cast and premise that stayed set in stone forever.

“Franchise fatigue” is a weird thing people like to mention, especially in regards to this period of Trek. But a franchise isn’t a person - it can’t feel fatigue.

“people who are too good at badminton,”

If Bond is at all bothered by the deaths of women in Goldfinger or Thunderball, he doesn’t show it in the least. Those movies literally defined how little he cares about getting women killed.

Do you think “computer-generated” and “AI-generated” are the same thing??

I too hate it when people have concerns of their own that don’t align with mine.

Does nobody understand the meaning of “reboot” anymore?

You took issue with this article for not being supportive of an artist whose drunken performative activism made life more difficult for the people he claimed to speak for.

I’m Malaysian. What this article failed to mention is that prior to the kiss, Matty Healy was visibly intoxicated, destroyed a drone belonging to the festival organizers, spat all over the stage (which other bands were supposed to use after his set), and went on a long ramble about the angry reaction to a Tiktok he…

Damn straight it wouldn’t have fit in Star Wars. Any costume designer who proposed something as mundane as neckties ought to be banned from the franchise.
